The tensions in the Middle East are far too complex for most Americans to comprehend. What is happening in Israel and Gaza today will be written in our next generation's history books. Who they blame will depend on where Read more

This is an interesting video of Senator Bernie Sanders releasing his anger in congress about the corruption that led to the 2008 crash. Whether you’re left or right, it doesn’t really matter. The fact is that most Americans probably feel the same way and THAT is enough to start asking ourselves how we can fix the system that has failed us. He mentions the unemployment rate is higher than we’re told in the media and that certain rules were loosened after banks had paid off (lobbied) the politicians. Probably the most important rule was called the Glass-Steagal Act of 1933 which basically said that regular banks like Chase and Citigroup are not allowed to gamble with your money. It was repealed (taken away) under the Clinton administration in 1999. Most people we have talked to wonder why both republicans and democrats would ever take this law away, yet it has never come back regardless of which party is in power.

At least that’s what this congressman is saying. What happens when a Republican Congressman tells Conservative Activists that fighting for the Constitution is a losing battle? Watch the fireworks as Unite In Action’s Director of Legal Affairs KrisAnne Hall and 912 Project National Co-Chair, Unite In Action President, Stephani Scruggs respond.

This took place at The National Republican Club of Capitol Hill, commonly known as the Capitol Hill Club, in Washington DC on June 28th, 2012 with Michelle Bachmann, Rep Gosar and several other members of congress as well as The Tea Party.Net. with syndicated talk show host Rusty Humphries as the MC. It was broadcast on LiveStream by The Tea Party.Net

Citizens Gateway recently announced that they will be producing a powerful documentary that will find real life solutions to save America’s economy. The original release date was scheduled in time for the 2012 elections but due to a lack of funds, the film has been pushed back to later in 2013. The film is non-partisan which explains why money would be hard to raise. If it was a right wing or left wing film, perhaps the movie would be in theaters in time for the election.

Mission Statement from the filmmakers

WE THE PEOPLE is a film about how to fix the American Economy and bring back the American Spirit.
We Believe……

Capitalism can be successful if treated with respect (moral capitalism)

There is no quick solutions

Great things can happen in great numbers

Americans need to be more proactive for their country

With great power and money comes great responsibility

Almost everyone was responsible for the 2008 crash

We should hold the reckless banks, CEO’s, and financial institutions accountable for the problems they helped create

We should hold the rating agencies accountable for the problems they helped create

We let CDO’s and CDS’s get very dangerous and they should have been regulated

Many leaders were warned about the 2008 crash but did nothing

The bailouts were unfair

People should understand how bubbles work

Letting banks fail may have been an option

If we did let them fail, we should have let smaller banks take pieces of the larger reckless banks

If you are too big to fail, you can take down a nation

Theres enough money in America for us to have prosperity

If you work hard and you are good at what you do, you deserve a shot at the American Dream

The gap between rich and poor is way to big

More companies should remember why they are successful and help the people and their country, who made it possible

Paying close attention to our national debt and doing something drastic to shrink it

China may soon exceed our GDP

Globalization can be dangerous and that we should re-think our global solutions

In bringing back jobs to America even if it hurts a little

The Federal Reserve should be audited regularly

The Federal Reserve may have too much power

The Federal Reserve’s job was to avoid us from the Great Depression and 2008 crash but instead they were partly responsible

We cannot afford to print anymore money

We cannot afford to be at war

Printing money (quantitative easing) causes inflation

We should solve problems by talking rather than declaring war

Repealing the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999 was a bad idea

Nixon may have not made the right choice by taking us off the gold standard in 1971

Money should not be used to influence decisions in politics

Globalization is responsible for losing many jobs offshore

We keep kicking the can down the road instead of taking the pain

Our checks and balance system is not working well because of the people in it

We are slowly drifting further and from our constitution and the important ideals of our founding fathers

Congress is unproductive

Congress should be fired if they can’t do their job effectively

Congress should be held responsible for their actions

The president should be held accountable for all the promises he makes on campaign trail

Entitlements are getting bigger and bigger

Redistricting effects election outcomes

The revolving door between Washington and Wall Street is a huge conflict of interest

In simplifying the tax code

Money in politics should be removed or limited greatly

The playing field is not even because of obsessive lobbying

Congressmen/women and senators should stop wasting time fund raising and do their jobs

Congressmen/women and senators should read bills before they vote on them

Congressmen/women and senators should stop worrying about being re-elected and represent the people that voted them in for once
